Dominique Dawson has no choice but to spy on her birth land England, in order to save the life of her younger brother from their French cousin. She's not happy about it, but will do whatever she must to save her brother's life.

Being the governess for Admiral Chase Randall's son, William, is turning out to be more than she expected. She never expected to fall in love with William, nor to have feelings for Chase. But those feelings can't keep her from following through with her mission. Above all she must save her brother, even if it means losing the two people who have come to mean the world to her. In the midst of her struggles with finding the information the French want, Dominique's faith is tested. How can she trust God? Will she be able to trust God or will she find that all she holds dear is lost to her?

THE FALCON AND THE SPARROW is a wonderful book. Fans of Ms. Tyndall's previous stories will find another great historical that quickly pulls you in. The characters are engaging and the story has action, drama, suspense, and a measure of faith all thrown together to make for an interesting read. I hope we see more of these characters in a future story as I feel Chase's sister and his friend both have a story to tell. Fans of historical romances with intrigue and a little inspiration will find THE FALCON AND THE SPARROW a delightful addition to their reading library.
